Meta tells the people that buy these glasses that they "only record audio and video when you tell them to" but that turned out to be an absolute lie. It's always looking, always listening, and people shouldn't use these fuckin corpo people trackers and advertisement machines.

Yes, it's only acceptable for the state to monitor people in public.
